I had a wonderful time with Joop, kept going till it was overhead then went inside. Once it goes past zenith, a) it would take too long to do the meridian flip, and b) I lose it behind some large trees shortly after.

But the seeing improved, it appeared to be at least 8/10. Was great to see the fine detail on Jupiter and in the GRS, and on ganymede, while capturing the raw data.

I'm out here now trying for Uranus, but it looks like i'm 30 minutes too late. When I walked outside it was scattered high fog/low cloud, now it's almost blanket.
